Thanks for the advice. Yes early in the process I realized this wasnt my usual basket case ithaca field and I backed away and I am simply admireing it. Barrels look uncut and are a little over 28inches . I dont have a 16guage choke guage so I dont know what it is choked. It has a beautiful checkered buttplate that I suspect is horn. My picture really washs out the reciever color. The metal is quite dark and in the right light is iridescent indigo. The only downside is the length of pull is only 13 1/4. I guess it must have belonged to a short guy with a bowler hat. Now im scanning ebay for a bargain oak and leather case so that it can return to its life as a proper english gent.
